PATCH * rendered 2712 frames in 1.595 secs, 1700.313 fps    11448186 = size
OLD:  ** rendered 2712 frames in 0.190 secs, 14273.684 fps   11474493 = size
NEW: ** rendered 2712 frames in 4.646 secs,     583.728 fps     9448273 = size

AND NOW** rendered 2712 frames in 0.410 secs     6614.634 fps   11448186 - size
so definitely improved but what does Andrea see?

I still am of the opinion that we should not upgrade or maybe wait for 1.4.x where x is some future fixes ??

I think compression level patch should work even with old flac


but yeah, you have some monster machine so may be new flac not as good as old one on it especially.
The tests I am running are only on a fairly good laptop, not the monster Amd epyc desktop.

can you try command line FLAC  compressor from 1.3 and 1.4 on same machine too?
I will see if I can figure out how to do this, but probably not until late tomorrow.

can you try also this patch on top of previous flac patch?

in theory it should add flac compression level support in gui

Applying the patch and then rendering without touching anything I get
the same result as before: twice as long and 4.7 MB in size. The
default is: compression_level=5.

Applying the patch and then varying the render parameter (compression_level=0):

0.664 sec
13711 fps
44.6 MB

Good thing to have introduced the render parameters (well explained)
so that the speed/size choice is left to the user.
Thank you.
